Second Officer | Geebax Offline Geebax + Add Friend Person Message Australia Offline | 3 # Firstly, we need to know which aircraft you have? But, in any event, having an Internet connection is not necessary to flying your Phantom, nothing in the system uses Internet, nor cellular data. Having said that, the WiFi onoly iPads do not have a GPS system fitted to them, and this means you will not be able to use the Follow Me function, or reset the home point to the position of the RC unit. However many people never use those functions anyway. |

Was concerned at first about not having GPS in iPad, but it has been no problem at all. Love flying the P4 with the large screen of the iPad Pro 12.9". Enjoy!! |

+ Add Friend Person Message United States Offline | 9 # I fly with an iPad that is WiFi only. The only "problem" that you might run into is the maps. What I try to do before I fly somewhere new is open the DJIGo app while in WiFi and move the map to where I will be flying. This caches the map so that it will be loaded when you fly. In the event that you don't do that, I'll create a WiFi hotspot using my cell phone right before I fly. That loads the map on the spot. Before you fly, you'll want to turn off the hotspot because the WiFi can interfere with the RC. Hope this helps! |

The first iPad Pro holder was from Amazon called iPad Pro 12.9" Adapter.. iPad Pro 12.9" mount adapter for DJI INSPIRE 1 and PHANTOM 4, PHANTOM 3 ADVANCED & PROFESSIONAL by ArchMediaNet Mount iPad Pro 12.9" tablet to your DJI RC for Inspire 1, Phantom 4, and Phantom 3 Advanced and Professional 3D PRINTED Mount Adapter custom designed to fit the naked iPad Pro 12.9" only Allows the use of iPad Pro with your DJI RC Mounts securely to the DJI clamp Easily removable/attachable You can see a picture on Amazon. Then I decided that I needed a sunscreen, so I purchased a real nice unit that holds the iPad Pro 12.9" on the Phantom 4 controller very solidly. It is from AERIALDRONEACCESSORIES.COM The unit for the iPad Pro 12.9" is called The MASTER SERIES IPAD PRO 12.9" SUNSHADE |

| Geebax Offline Geebax + Add Friend Person Message Australia Offline | 21 # ajayrdshah Posted at 2016-7-20 08:37 It depends upon what device you are talking about. Apple iPads that are WiFi only do not have GPS modules fitted to them. Without GPS 'active tracking' as you call it, or 'follow me' will not work on a P3. But POI works fine, as it does not rely on the iPad having a GPS receiver. It works solely on the GPS in the aircraft. If you are talking about Android devices, then most phones have GPS capability. |

| amh2007@nyu.edu Offline amh2007 + Add Friend Person Message United States Offline | 26 # I am looking to purchase an iPad mini 4. I'd prefer to save money and buy the one w/o GPS and then tether to my iphone which has built in GPS. I was told by some that that either 1) does not work or 2) GPS data is inaccurate. The other option is to buy the iPad mini 4 w/o GPS (cheaper) and purchase a stand alone separate GPS device which supposedly is very accurate but seems to be another hassle to remember and charge. At the end of the day the price to purchase both would be the same as an iPad mini 4 w/ Cellular(Has GPS) Anyone with real life experience tethering their Phantom 4 from an iPad Mini to a iphone (or other GPS enabled device) My other question, how many GB do you recommend either 16GB or 64GB on the ipad Mini 4 to record and save video on the device even though at 720 resolution? Thanks! |

+ Add Friend Person Message United Kingdom Offline | 27 # Geebax Posted at 2016-7-19 15:37 'active track' and 'follow me' are completely different flight modes. Follow me literally follows the device via the GPS module built into it. Follow me is totally inactive without GPS in the device. However, active track is a more modern flight mode for the Phantom 4 series and uses the main camera to acquire and fix on the subject to track it - active track does NOT require GPS. |

There does seem to be quite a lot of confusion between active track and follow me on these forums. I suggest flyers actually read the manual and understand what GPS actually is! How can a dog, for example, without GPS receivers on it be actively tracked by GPS LMFAO. |
